An aeronautical engineer from Nizamabad district of Andhra Pradesh was found dead under suspicious circumstances at his house in Madrid in Spain. 
 Twenty-five-year-old Y Sidhartha, working in GMB - a Space Research Centre in Madrid, was found dead in his flat on Friday, and the reason for his death was still not known. 
 Sidhartha's parents, who are doctors at Nizamabad, were informed about his demise yesterday and they are trying to get more details on the incident. 
 "Some people from IIT Chennai called me up yesterday and told Sidhartha was seriously injured. To further confirm the incident I called up Sidhartha's junior in Madrid who told me that Sidhartha was found dead in his house," a shocked Y Sambasiva Rao, the victim's father, said on Saturday. 
 He said GMB officials have also contacted him and informed about his son's death. 
 "GMB officials told me they would arrange for VISA, travel documents and other arrangements for handing over Sidhartha's body at the earliest," Sambasiva Rao said. 
 Sidhartha's death comes days after an engineer from the state was shot dead in Atlanta in the US. A total of eight engineers from Andhra Pradesh have met a tragic end in the United States in the last 15 months. 
 "I have only been told by his junior that Madrid Police had shifted the body for autopsy. They are not revealing much about the incident," Sambasiva Rao said. 
 "My elder son, who is working in United States will leave for Madrid to receive the body. I am also in touch with Indian Embassy in Madrid. Sidhartha's body was likely to be handed over only by Tuesday," he said. 
 Sidhartha had booked flight tickets for India for March 1, to attend his cousin's marriage in Nizamabad, Sambasiva Rao said. 
 "He left India two years ago. And now we were eagerly awaiting his arrival," Sambasiva Rao said. 
 "Whenever Sidhartha phoned me, he used to tell me that he was busy working on mapping routes for space shuttles. He also worked on the mapping of routes for Space Shuttle to Mars," Sambasiva Rao said. 
 "I also had plans for his marriage," Rao, added.
